Welcome to the Club, fellow Persuader player here. If you post a picture of the electronics cavity we might be able to tell you easily if they have been modified.

I do know of one Persuader out there that sold recently (but it was an '85 I think) that definitely had its electronics swapped out for aftermarket parts. It still had its original pickups though. Doesn't sound like yours.

Mica will get to your number lookup in good time, but feel free to hang out here in the waiting room and show off pictures.  :)

*if you were asking, or interested, there is a mod available here for Persuaders, [highly recommended]. http://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=260.0
